This form is used when someone asks a judge for an emergency court order without the other person being present, and they need to explain in writing why waiting for the other person to show up would cause serious harm. A person would use this form if they need immediate help from the court—like in cases involving domestic violence, child safety, or other urgent situations—and they're asking the judge to make a quick decision based only on their side of the story.
This form must be printed and filled by hand, or opened in Adobe Acrobat.
